Sorry for taking so long to update this story. I hope I am forgiven. To apologize I have written a nice long chapter that is almost 2,000 words ENJOY!
He looked at me with a blank expression on his face.
"We…we what?" He turns his head some.
"We have a daughter. Her name is Olivia…after you and Oh my God Oliver she is perfect. She is so smart and beautiful. She has my hair but your eyes and-"
"You were pregnant when I left? Why didn't you tell me?" I nod and look down at my hands.
"I was going to tell you when you got back but you didn't come back. Do you wanna see a picture of her?"
He nods. I reach down into my bag and grab my phone. I click into my gallery and find the photo that Laurel took of us when we were at the beach. I'm sitting in the sand and Olivia is in my lap. I hand my phone over to him and he takes it. Oliver looks over the photo in awe.
"She is beautiful. She looks just like you Felicity. If you had told me you were pregnant I would never have gone. I would never have-
"Taken Sara on the yacht " I say looking away from him. A tear forming in my eye. He sighs and looks down. It's silent as he just looks at the photo of our daughter. He finally looks up at me and speaks.
"Felicity. I am so sorry. I know that there is nothing I can say that can change what I did, or change what you had to go through alone but-
"I was not alone! I had Laurel and Tommy. I had my mother. I even had Thea. When you died and the news came out that you brought Sara on the Gambit with you, that you cheated on your girlfriend the paparazzi wouldn't leave me alone. One day I was followed to the doctor and next thing I knew all of Starling City new that I was pregnant. Did they immediately say it was your child? No of course not they had to start a rumor that I cheated on you like you cheated on me." Tears fall down my face and I take a deep breath to compose myself.
"I went to your house but your mother wouldn't do anything. She tried to pay me to say that I cheated on you so I didn't ruin your name! I was thinking about getting an abortion until Thea ran up to me and just hugged me saying that she was happy she was going to have a niece or nephew. She was my only friend for awhile until Laurel finally approached me. She told me that even though you're the reason her little sister is gone she was gonna help me through everything." I stop to take a breath and Oliver stands up.
"Felicity. There is nothing I can say or do to change what happened to you and I am so sorry, but I'm here now and we have a daughter. Who I can not wait to meet if you will let me." He reaches for my hand but I pull away.
"You will let me meet her right. Does she know that I am alive?" I nod and stand up. Every part of me wants to tell him no that he can't meet Olivia but I know that that is not fair.
"Yes, you can meet her. I'll bring her by tomorrow, and yes she knows that you're alive. She was with me when I saw it on the news."
"And what did she say?"
"She was upset that I had to bring her to school and not to meet you." He softly smiles when I say that.
"Why didn't you bring her?"
"I had to see you first." He nods in agreement.
"I have to get to work. Laurel is downstairs. She was gonna come up to see you but she's not ready and I do not blame her, but I have to go." He stands up. I walk to the door and he follows me.
"Feel free to bring Olivia by when you feel ready. I know you said you would tomorrow but do it when you're ready. I'll be going home later this afternoon. I was so good to see you Felicity. I missed you." I nod and turn to look at him.
"I missed you too Oliver. I am glad that you are alright. I will let you know when I will bring her to meet you." He nods and then kisses me on the head like old times. I just walk out of his room and to the elevator. I go down to the lobby and walk over to Laurel.
"I'm ready to go." I turn and walk out of the hospital to my car. I get in and Laurel does as well.
"How did it go?" I say nothing and just stare at the steering wheel for a moment before closing my eye and breaking down into tears.
Olivia's POV
I sit on the steps of my school waiting for my mom to pull up. School was so hard today. I kept thinking about my father. What was he like? Would he like me? When will I meet him? I see the red Mini cooper pull up and go over. I put my bag in the back seat and sit in front.
"Hey mom! Are we going to go see my dad?" She smiled at me. I could tell that she had been crying. Her eyes were red and puffy.
"No baby not today."
"What why not?!" I couldn't believe it how could we not go to see him. He was my father?
"He has had a long day Olivia. We can go see him when he is out of the hospital and if back home. Auntie Thea hasn't seen him yet and you know how much she missed him." I nod but cross my arms mad. I wanted to meet him. He was my father and I had never met him before. This was just so unfair.
We drive home and mom stops at Big Belly Burger to cheer me up but I won't talk to her. She hands me my food in the car and I sip my milkshake as we go home. I walk in and go straight to my room and eat my dinner at my desk well I do my math homework. After some time my mom comes in and kisses my head.
"Can we talk Liv?" I shrug as I just keep typing on my laptop working on a book report.
"Ok. How about I talk and you listen." I stop typing but don't look at her.
"I know you're excited to meet your father but he has had a long day. He was gone for 10 years and now his family needs to see him-"
"But were his family!" I say finally turning to look at her.
"I meant his family like Aunt Thea and your grandmother. They all need to see him. We don't want to overwhelm him. And it will be easier to talk to him when he is at home and not in the hospital."
"You got to see him!" I say matter of factly. She sighs.
"I did. I had to tell him about his beautiful daughter that he had no idea about. The one with his blue eyes." She smiles at me as she plays with my blonde hair.
"You will meet him I promise you. Just give it a couple days alright" She kisses me on the head.
That night after my mother tucks me in I get up and grab my laptop and put it in my backpack. I change into jeans then put on a sweatshirt. I put my Converse on and grab my bag and put it on my back. I open my window and climb onto the lower roof. From there I walk over to where our car in and climb down from the roof onto the car than to the ground. I walk down the street and toward where my grandmother and Aunt Thea lives. They had a mansion because they were very rich.
Once I get there I go up to the door and knock on the door. After a few minutes the door opens and I see Raisa, their maid. She looks down at me shocked.
"Olivia? What are you doing here at this hour? Where is your mother?" She was from Russia and was very nice. Whenever I was over she always snuck me cookies and other sweets when my mom wasn't paying attention. I look up at here.
"She doesn't know I'm here ." She sighs and lets me in then shuts the door. She holds her hand out for my bag and Jacket. As I hand then to her my grandmother walks in.
"Olivia Mia Smoak. Your mother is worried sick about you. I just got off the phone with her. She had a feeling this is where you would being heading here." She looks at me disapproving what I've done. I look down softly smiling.
"I'm sorry Grandmother. I just wanted to meet my father." She smiles at me.
"Well, your mother is on her way. And your father is in the den with Aunt Thea. Why don't you go meet him."
"Really?" I look up at her my eyes wide and she nods.
I walk towards the den and see My Aunt Thea sitting on the coffee table across from a man on the couch. He has his back to me but I can see he has short light hair. He has a deep voice.
"I missed you so much speedy." He says to her. I remember Aunt Thea telling me that was his nickname for her. She looks up and sees me then smiles. The man, my father turns around to look at where she is smiling. He looks at me eyes wide. He looks different than the photos of him on the news. Aunt Thea gets up and walks over to me. She stops when she gets to me and smiles.
"You are in so much trouble when your mother gets here" She ruffles my hair. As if she knew I ran away.
"But go talk to him. He wants to meet you." She walks out of the room
He gets up and walks towards me, a look of shock on his face. All of a sudden I'm scared to be meeting him finally. I look up at him.
"You must be Olivia."
"And you're my father."
